Bilingual Schools for Spanish-Speaking Students

Some of the schools we researched seem to cater mostly to Spanish-speaking students who are interested in learning English in a bilingual curriculum. In our opinion, these types of schools would be appropriate for an expat who already speaks Spanish, but a new student with limited Spanish skills (especially older students) would probably have a hard time adjusting and feeling at home.

Some of these schools include:

Colegio Del Bosque

Del Bosque is a Catholic girls school located in Bosque de las Lomas that offers a bilingual program. It welcomes students from preschool through 12th grade. Del Bosque is located in Bosques de las Lomas.
